Fernee said of her experiences working in the academic world:

"And in the end, as much as I loved my work, going in to work became very, very difficult because of the psychological impact on me... I would have thought the same but not only in one academic environment, in several academic environments I underwent the same treatment. A lot of women I know had to deal with that as well."

After quitting her £30,000-a-year job ($45,000), she is currently living off her parents' income, who pay for all of her living expenses. She does, though, plan on writing a book about her experiences to hopefully help other women that feel like they are too pretty to work comfortably.
